Do you think that we should allow members of secret societies to obtain positions of power?

Question

For example; Freemasons, Skull and Bones, and the Illuminati,

Most people nowadays realise that human existence in western civilisation is shaped by a very few super wealthy families.These people form a core of power using political parties and figureheads as a cover for their clandestine activities. For hundreds if not thousands of years they have covertly aquired wealth and property at the expense of the public in general.

Answer 3

My knowledge is limited on several of those groups (and I question the validity of at least one of them), but certainly, the Freemasons have been one of the best things about early America.

So, my answer is: why not?
We do, after all, live in America...and to me, that means freedom.

Otherwise, what's next?
Prevent those of other religious beliefs from jobs?
Sound a lot like 1930's Germany.
